Chapter 171: The Dark Forest
Chapter 171: The Dark Forest The beasts closed in. Jaxen's fists clenched. His mana was depleted—barely a flicker in his core. The AEONAXIS armor had faded, leaving him in his torn clothes, his body covered in cuts and bruises. Sophia stood beside him, her blade drawn. Her mana was low too, but she was still standing. "Any ideas?" she asked. "Fight until we can't." "That's not a plan." "It's the only one I've got." The first beast lunged—a twisted creature with scales like obsidian and eyes like burning embers. Jaxen met it head-on, his fist connecting with its jaw. The creature staggered but didn't fall. Two more replaced it, snapping at his legs. Sophia cut one down, then another. Her blade flashed in the darkness, carving through flesh and bone. But more kept coming. "There's no end to them!" she shouted. Jaxen punched another beast, sending it flying into a tree. The trunk splintered from the impact. "I noticed!" The horde pressed in. Jaxen and Sophia fough
Chapter 170: Wings of Time
Chapter 170: Wings of Time The chains shattered. Jaxen stood in the center of the cell, the AEONAXIS armor gleaming gold and black. His mana surged, pushing against the walls, cracking the stone. Sophia stared at him. "You broke the chains?" "AEONAXIS armor boosts my stats. The chains couldn't hold me." He turned to her. "We need to move. Now." He grabbed her wrist and pulled her toward the cell door. The lock was reinforced—enchanted steel. Jaxen punched through it, the metal crumpling like paper. The door swung open. --- The dungeon was a maze. Guards rushed toward them, their weapons drawn. Jaxen didn't stop. He moved through them like a force of nature—each punch sending them flying, each kick shattering bone. Sophia followed close behind, her own mana flaring. She wasn't at full strength, but she could still fight. "Left!" she shouted. Jaxen turned, driving his fist into a guard's chest. The man crumpled. They ran through the corridors, past cells filled with prisone
Chapter 169: The Missing
Chapter 169: The Missing Bill Hart sat in his office at Liberty Guild headquarters, staring at the wall. Three days. It had been three days since Jaxen and Sophia had disappeared. No note. No message. No explanation. Just... gone. He had asked around. He had checked their apartments. He had contacted the Hunter's Investigation Association. Nothing. No one had seen them. No one knew where they had gone. First Peter. Now these two. He rubbed his temples, a headache forming. What the hell is happening? --- The door to his office opened. Anthony walked in, his expression grim. His robotic arm gleamed under the light. "We've searched everywhere," he said. "The Grayzone. The outer districts. The dungeon gates. No sign of them." Bill didn't respond. "We've also checked the guild's tracking systems. Their phones are off. Their mana signatures are gone. It's like they vanished." Bill slammed his fist on the desk. "Damn it!" Anthony didn't flinch. He had seen Bill angry before. B
Chapter 168: The King's Truth
Chapter 168: The King's Truth The king's chambers were vast and cold. Jaxen and Sophia stood before the throne, their wrists still bound in chains of golden light. The king sat above them, his expression unreadable. The queen was absent. The advisors were gone. It was just the three of them. "You fought a Dark Knight," the king said. "And you won." Jaxen nodded. "That is no small feat. The Dark Knights are chosen by the goddess herself. They are among the most powerful beings in our world." "I know," Jaxen said. "I fought one." The king studied him. "You are strong. That much is clear. But strength alone is not enough." He leaned forward. "I have a proposition for you." --- The king told them everything. The goddess Salin. The Dark Knights. The war that had raged for centuries. The world that was slowly dying. "She is draining the world's mana," the king said. "Every day, she grows stronger. Every day, our world grows weaker. If she is not stopped, everything will die."
Chapter 167: The Walled City
Chapter 167: The Walled City The journey began at dawn. The Holy Knights—the man and the woman—led Jaxen and Sophia through the town gate. Behind them marched a small private army—twenty soldiers in gleaming armor, their weapons drawn, their eyes watchful. Jaxen and Sophia walked in the center, their wrists bound in chains of golden light. The chains didn't hurt, but they pulsed with a gentle warmth that suppressed their mana. "Comfortable?" the female Holy Knight asked, her voice light. "Not really," Jaxen replied. She smiled. "Good." --- They walked for hours. The road was long and winding, cutting through dying forests and barren fields. The sky remained crimson, the air thick with ash. The world was slowly dying, and everywhere they looked, they saw signs of it. The people they passed were thin, tired, their faces drawn with worry. Some wore masks to protect against the ash. Others simply covered their mouths with cloth. This world is suffering, Sophia thought. And the
Chapter 166: The Golden Knights
Chapter 166: The Golden Knights The battle was over. Jaxen stood in the center of the destroyed forest, his chest heaving. The AEONAXIS armor faded, returning to its dormant state. His blade was still in his hand, its golden surface stained with blood. Sophia sat on a fallen log, her face pale. She had used too much mana—the barrier spell had drained her almost completely. "You okay?" Jaxen asked, walking over. "Yeah." She winced. "Just a headache." He sat beside her. "You saved me." "Don't get used to it." He laughed. "I won't." --- The surviving squad members emerged from the trees. They were terrified. Their faces were pale. Their hands were shaking. They had seen a Dark Knight. They had seen Jaxen fight it. They had seen the giant hand tear open the sky. "What..." The captain stammered. "What are you?" Jaxen looked at him. "I'm a Holy Knight." The captain blinked. "A Holy Knight? But... the treaty. The Holy Knights aren't supposed to leave the capital." "I'm not sup
